Conclusion and Logbook
This is just the beginning. Teaching ESL with technology in a classroom or online, asynchronously, synchronously, or in a hybrid fashion is the new reality. There is no turning back.
According to your context, you should ask yourself:
What should I do?
- Become aware of digital platforms and learn how to use them
- Organize my online classrooms efficiently
- Plan according to my pedagogical intentions to develop the three ESL competencies
- Select the pedagogical tools I already use in class that I could use in an online setting
- Prepare a work plan indicating synchronous and asynchronous activities
- Transit from isolated activities to in-context LESs
- Learn and grow from my mistakes
- Ask for help when I can’t find the information online
